| Nearly all the lots in Woodruff Place have
| changed hands in the last week. and they have
in many instances doubled in price. There were
also several big sales northeast of the city.
James Bruce. who owns large tract of land y,
| the end of College avenue, was offered SIC, 600
for forty acres by some Pittsburg capitalists,
but he refused to sell at any price, He has sold
two acres this week at S., 600 each.
| There is also quite an active demand for busi
| ness houses in the central part of the city; but
| few are in the market. Yesterday j. B. Sent
| sold the new building erected by Murray, the
| IN. /. S. T." man, on the Circle. to S. Schles
| niger, of Cleveland, for $13 OO0
Capitalists are here from Cleveland, Pittsburg,
| Cincinnati and New York, and are more willing
| to buy than owners are to SELL The discovers
of gas at Brightwood last evening created great
excitement among the dealers. and sharp ad
vance in prices is anticipated.
